  • I think this is okay now, but this concerns me. The English here is problematic, and the article seems to have a pastiche of content closely paraphrased from a number of sources, including Wikipedia articles. Not marking it done to invite other eyes. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 12:58, 10 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • I ran a copyedit over the Russia and Poland sections. Out of time to continue today, but I agree that some sections are very close to other sources and articles. The Poland section took large chunks from the Partitions of Poland article and the "main" articles for the various partitionings. I figure the author was adding context to why these states were in the Empire, but some of it got a bit into the weeds, so between pruning there and copyedits for language, I think those 2 sections are good. I'll have a go at the others next time by. CrowCaw 01:09, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
